When did you get time to take all these pictures?

Generally started doing astronomy stuff around midnight on at least 3 of the nights. Usually didn't get outside until 9:30 - 10:00 on the other nights.

Anne-Louise got some stuff too and will post in due course.

Tony,

Ah, yes, it's almost that time of year again.

Looking forward to re-doing this amazing region.

Cheers!
